The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy

Chapter 691 - 679

"Qiqi, come over and see if there’s any problem?"

This was a matter of life and death for the fourth brother, Rong Yuan didn’t dare to be careless.

Qiao Qiqi wanted to leave, but Yao Yao nervously grabbed her arm and looked at her.

"I’ll just take a look, I’m not leaving."

Only then did Yao Yao let her go. Qiao Qiqi walked towards Brother Rong, and Yao Yao thought for a moment, tilted her head, looked at the handsome man, and called out, "Husband."

Rong Yuan almost choked on his own saliva when he heard this; Qiao Qiqi appeared calm but was laughing inside. To avoid getting scolded, she could only pretend to remain composed.

"What did you call me?" Rong Yuan frowned and stared at the distant beautiful girl who looked like a doll.

"Husband, my sister told me to!" Yao Yao pointed with her little finger, righteous and indignant.

Qiao Qiqi silently cursed; this kid was too innocent, not knowing how to hide anything. She smiled awkwardly, "Brother, I’m looking at the stone."

"Qiao Qiqi, what on earth are you up to?" Rong Yuan was both angry and helpless. Should he scold her? No! How could he bear to? His sister was his precious, no matter what she did, he couldn’t bear to criticize her harshly.

"I already told you this is the bride I got for you; you’ll be responsible for her from now on." Qiao Qiqi knew her brother wouldn’t scold her, so she boldly insisted.

Once she’s done with the fourth brother’s affairs, the university term was beginning, and she wouldn’t have time to look after Yao Yao every day.

Leaving her to Brother Rong was the most appropriate choice.

"..."

Rong Yuan was utterly speechless, not taking his sister’s words seriously at all.

Qiao Qiqi took out the small instrument she brought and tested the stone, her expression changed slightly, "Brother, something’s wrong!"

"What is it?" Rong Yuan’s expression became serious as well.

"This isn’t the Heavenly Stone! We’ve been duped!" Qiao Qiqi’s face looked particularly bad as she clenched the small instrument in her hand tightly.

"Bastards!" Rong Yuan was also infuriated. They spent eight hundred million on a life-saving thing only to find out it was a fake?

"First, let’s find the organizers! See what they have to say!"

"Okay!" Rong Yuan agreed, since it was the organizers who auctioned the item, if it’s a fake, they have to take responsibility.

Yao Yao, not knowing what was going on, looked at the two’s strained expressions but didn’t dare approach, obediently shrinking to the side and watching.

Gu Lizhe and Yang Xiaoqing came over, and seeing the beautiful woman who was auctioned off now here, Yang Xiaoqing excitedly pointed at Rong Yuan, "Brother Rong, I thought you were a gentleman! I never thought you’d be so lustful!"

"Ahem... I was the one who won the bid." Qiao Qiqi awkwardly cleared her throat and said, she couldn’t let anyone damage Brother Rong’s reputation.

"Huh? You bid for it? Why did you bid for a woman?" Yang Xiaoqing was utterly confused, then felt a sense of crisis looming; Qiao Qiqi, the fickle person that she was, must be looking for a new love!

"I’ll explain this to you later. Gu Lizhe, we bid on a fake item and are going to find the organizers, come with us."

This matter was of great importance, concerning the fourth brother’s life. She couldn’t be careless, having one more person was one more support.

"What the heck? The bastards here dared to auction off fake goods? Let’s go find them." Gu Lizhe was incensed upon hearing this. He couldn’t stand the way things were done here, acting as if they were so almighty. If it wasn’t for the fact his love interest wanted to come, he wouldn’t have come to this damned place!

"Xiaoqing, you take care of Yao Yao, we’re going to have a look, don’t run off with her." Qiao Qiqi advised and then followed Rong Yuan and Gu Lizhe to find the person in charge with the supposed Heavenly Stone.
